SIXTH GRADE ACTIVITIES

The 6GAC’s main mission is to make sure the class has a fabulous, memory filled last year in elementary school!

Things the 6GAC is involved in:

Community Service Project:more info to follow.

Project Adventure & Cedardale field trips (the school picks the venues)

Caribbean Day(Feb 15): a tropical themed party held in school

The Social (May 17): We rent the First Church Hall, hire a DJ and have a blast!********This event is a no charge event for the entire class.

Pizza Party: The 6th grade class meets at Spofford for pizza then they hop on a bus headed to Masco for the Tri Town Mixer run in May by the TTC.

Class T Shirts & Towels: Both are great keepsakes!

The 6GAC also covers the cost of any field trip scholarships, the Moving On Ceremony.

Any other fundraising opportunities that parents are willing to organize and run. Such as the dance held at DiBurro’s or Paint Nights (any new ideas are welcome)

Why are we telling you all this?

We want you to get an idea of what’s happening and because we will need help!

For the 6GAC to run the traditional events and supply the class with T Shirts & towels it will cost approximately $50.00 per student based on previous years’ financials. (This does not include field trips.) In the past, these events have been funded by donations and through fundraising efforts. Fundraising has previously consisted of concession stands at PTO events such as both school’s Talent Shows and the Color Run.This year we sold hot dogs at the Ice Cream Social due to the lack of Fall Fun Down

As the kids get older and everyone’s lives get busier, it is harder and harder to find people who are willing/able to donate both their time & their children’s time to school fundraising events.With this in mind, we are asking that families donate now so that the 6GAC knows how much money they will need to raise to cover the cost to make this an amazing year for the kids.If we don’t make our quota in donations, then we will continue to ask for help with fundraising activities.If extra funds are raised, the balance will be put towards the field trip.We may get lucky and not need to pay for the Class of 2025 to go to Cedardale!

Please make donations payable to Boxford PTO with 6GAC in the memo line and send in via back pack mail marked 6GAC or Erin Bisesti.
